Summary
Tim wakes up in a world in which Batman doesn't exist. And by consequence, the Robins never became heroes.
Dick is a Talon, Jason is Red Hood (a villain), and Damian is a League of Assassins assassin. And Tim apparently is a hero called Draken, who, frankly, sucks at being a hero.
And in this weird alternate reality, something big is brewing and Batman isn't here to keep the Justice League from tearing itself apart.
Tim is really really done with everything. Dick, Jason, and Damian aren't helping.
Tim really really hates magic as well.

Summary
Growing up, Danny's parents had drilled it into him and Jazz the dangers of summoning rituals. Unlike something like a natural portal or the one they built in the basement, a summoning ritual brought ghosts to you without any clear way to send them back home.
After Danny's accident, he hadn't thought he needed to worry about summoning rituals anymore. After all, he kind of had his hands full with the whole "Ghosts are real and attacking him and also he's half-ghost now" thing.
However, once Danny took up the crown of Ghost King, he found himself having to deal with summoning rituals from the other side. It wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't constantly confronted with ghosts of a past he had shoved deep down in his heart.
AKA 5 times Danny runs away from Damian after being summoned to Gotham, and the 1 time he stays.
